Your horse(s) must have a Health Certificate, and Coggins. The trainer must present his/her valid workmen's compensation. A "Race & Go" again is just that. Check-in by 10:30 A.M. to the stall(s) assigned to you. If someone is in your stall - contact the Stallman; do not help yourself to another stall. Being in a stall not assigned to you could result in your horse being scratched, as from time to time the Stewards, State, track Vets, or Clocker may have need to contact you. Once your horse has raced and cooled out you are expected to leave the grounds. If for any reason your horse is unable to leave after training or racing contact the Stallman or Stable Gate. Anyone not permanently stabled at Tampa Bay Downs will use the stall assignment issued at the Stable Gate upon arrival. All “Race & Go” horses must be recorded with the stall office, no exceptions.
